LOL! Just looking at that second picture I just knew the one on the right w/ that "glare" was a boy!


I look at them & two names came to mind, "Sugar, & Spice!" Ha,Ha,Ha!

  I don't have experience w/ kittens, so can't tell you how old they are, but someone will come along soon that will.  Is there a Vet at the refuge you work at, that can look at them & tell you?

They are just beautiful!!!

Sadly no vet at the refuge, I will let them settle for a few days before I cart them off to the vets, whats the bet I end up keeping them, and yes angels mommy he just looks like a boy doesnt he and the hissing

It's very hard to tell age and size from photos, could be anything from 6-10 weeks.

ADORABLE!!!!!!  How could anyone look at those faces and dump them in the woods (even if a threat)???  I just do not get people??  I ran into the women I got Grey from (let her have litter after litter after litter) and I showed her a photo of the babies, she had the nerve to ask me if she could have one of the kittens because it was cute; I did not know how to reply to her other than to laugh and say "ummm, NO".

Hard to tell from the pics, but I would guess 8-12 weeks. The little girl on the left is just beautiful, I would take her in a heartbeat! (Hubby and I are discussing getting a kitten - he's in love with a bonded pair at the shelter and I think one more would be plenty lol)

They look older to me- my bet is on 10-12 weeks! 

Good for you for taking them in. They are so unbelievably adorable!

Yep I am thinking about 10 weeks, they are eating and Jenny has given me some CRM so they are really enjoying that for the moment
 I will get them some goats milk today and some propper kitten food, cute little things have used their litter tray

They don't need any sort of milk - KMR or goat.  They do need as much kitten food as they will eat. 

Humans are the only mammels that drink the milk of other species, after weaning, and some of us aren't well adapted to doing that.

They are super-cute and look really well.  Hope you can post more photos as they grow up, though unless you are keeping them yourself I doubt they will be with you for long.

They are so cute!  My first guess was 10 weeks too, but I'm no expert.  They look roughly the right age to be adopted out.  Do you intend to keep them?

They are lovely! Let me add that when I first knew about them (I have not yet seen them) we did not know how old they were or if they were weaned. So the KMR was a precaution in case they could not eat. But seeing hte pix now I would say 8-10 weeks. I am so glad you are keeping them, Lynda, though I am sure certain noses will be out of joint for a while!
